Conservation of molecular responses upon viral infection in the non-vascular plant Marchantia polymorpha - Nature Communications Assessment of the evolution of plant-virus interactions suggests rapid reshaping of plant viromes after land colonization, along with rerouting of general defense responses to newly acquired vascular ...

We are looking for suitable candidates to apply for a INPhINIT fellowship. Our current interests are focused on understanding the evolution of plant virus interactions and on the role of crosskingdom RNAi in plant-fungus symbiotic interactions and their evolution. shorturl.at/0FOSx shorturl.at/UbbgT
